June 21, 2026We could not have been happier with these talented musicians. From our first communication to the end of our event, Jason and Elysa were professional, responsive, and an absolute pleasure to work with. They arrived on time, were fully prepared, and played beautifully for three straight hours without missing a beat.
The Spanish guitar music created the perfect atmosphere and elevated our event in a way we never could have imagined. Throughout the evening, guests repeatedly commented on how wonderful the music was and how much they were enjoying it. Their performance added warmth, elegance, and sophistication, making the entire event feel truly extraordinary.
If you're looking for exceptional musicians who are reliable, talented, and capable of transforming an event into something memorable, I highly recommend them. They exceeded every expectation and were one of the highlights of our celebration.

September 2, 2024I booked Jay and Lee as well as the wonderful flamenco dancer for a 30th flamenco-themed birthday party. Jay and Lee are incredibly talented musicians and they both had such great, positive energy! The flamenco dancer was fantastic and encouraged everyone else to join the dance floor as well. Everyone had a great time enjoying the music and dancing. Communication was perfect and the group was punctual! All in all, I highly recommend this group for any type of event!!
